I rely on DU to stay informed. Since knowledge is power, I feel empowered knowing that this community has persevered and grown since its inception. Fifteen years in this world makes DU an institution. This community is passionate and committed to pursuing the truth. My 67 years have been chock full of challenges, and I've learned how to meet them, transcend them, and transform them into strength and wisdom. I feel the same is happening to this country. Yes, the drumpsters will try to do their worst and it will be ugly. But destructiveness always, always, always, ends in self-destruction because deplorable people just never know when to stop. They can't stop themselves from going too far.

Screw your courage to the sticking place, friends. We've got this because we have each other and every decent citizen of this country.
